Frequently Asked Questions

Which hash algorithm should I use?
For most modern applications, SHA-256 is the recommended choice. MD5 and SHA-1 are considered cryptographically broken and should only be used for legacy compatibility or non-security purposes.
Can these hashes be reversed?
No. Hash functions are one-way — you cannot derive the original text from a hash. This makes them ideal for storing password hashes or verifying data integrity.
